Beautifully built Cape Elizabeth home nestled in the woods on 2.5 acres

Built in 2022/23, this beautiful home is passive solar located on a private road in the woods in Cape Elizabeth. You will feel you are in Maine the second you walk in the home with the beautiful nautical features and decor. With large windows in every room (no curtains except in the guest room/office) you will enjoy the natural light from sun up to sun down. The home was designed, so you can enjoy mother nature while being comfortable inside and enjoy watching the friendly wildlife like deer, birds, turkeys, squirrels, chipmunks, etc.

The living room with a fireplace and beautiful white sectional is open to the dining room and kitchen. There is a tv in the living room, owner's suite, and in the basement. Only a short drive, uber or bike away from the famous Portland Headlight, downtown Portland, restaurants, bars, and most importantly the ocean and beautiful beaches. This home is perfect for adults wanting to getaway and relax.

This is the owner's primary home, so it offers everything a home would need to be comfortable. The owner will be staying on the property next door (through the woods), so she will be close by to help with any questions or issues, BUT you will still have complete privacy. There is enough room to park small/medium sized car in the garage. The property is sprayed for ticks and mosquitos in the summer to cut back significantly on the annoying bugs that come from living in the woods. Keep your eyes peeled for fireflies at night or the beautiful sounds of peepers from the pond next door.

Our group had a fantastic stay. The house was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The location is extremely private, located on a large, mostly forested lot. We particularly enjoyed spending time on the large deck, surrounded by nature. Jocelyn was very helpful and responsive, and provided a number of great suggestions for our trip!

Very comfortable modern home in a great location

A great place to stay in Cape Elizabeth. The house is off the beaten path enough to provide plenty of privacy and quiet, but close enough to everything around to enjoy everything the area has to offer (5-10 minutes to coast, 15 minutes to Portland). Very responsive and friendly host, everything was as advertised. We would recommend for anyone looking to visit the area.

Lovely, calm wooded oasis home base for family

We really enjoyed our stay at Jocelyn's place. The neighborhood is beautiful and it's located only 15 mins from downtown Portland. We rented a car and did a lot of fun day trips from the house. Jocelyn was really communicative and helpful! It was a wonderful and comfortable house.

New Home in Cape Elizabeth

We had a great stay - the home was situated in a beautiful neighborhood and was recently built. The home was decorated perfectly and was very comfortable with all new appliances and furnishings. The host was attentive, although we really didn’t need anything. We saw lots of nature and enjoyed sitting on the back porch. We would definitely stay here again!

Quiet and private getaway

This modern and clean home was welcoming and had all of the amenities we needed. We were given permission to bring our small rescue dog and appreciated the secluded location, where she was able to relax, away from people and other dogs. The location is close to the shore and an easy drive to restaurants in Cape Elizabeth, South Portland, and Portland. Our stay in Maine to visit family was peaceful and effortless, thanks to this rental.
